Comparative Anatomy: A Beginning Course in Architectural Design
The goals, methodology, and content of a beginning course in design are presented here as an approach to the teaching of the fundamental principles of making architecture. In the course the pedagogical how has equal standing with the what of content. Concepts from educational theory and practice are applied, including working with a hierarchy of educational goals and employing the idea of “scaffolding” to help the student learn and use the material. Taught by different people in different schools for more than 30 years, the course makes use of established building types, progressive sequencing of assignments, multiple iterations, and ongoing comparisons between projects, which allow students to develop a rigorous foundation in their training as future architects.
